If you have any suggestions on criteria, we would be interested to hear! Our other main criteria is that they can engage with the dosage.

We are still working on our criteria. But age 5+ with more than one disordered error pattern.

Love working in a service where leadership supports evidence based intensity and duration of intervention for severe SSD. 3 sessions per week with breaks based on clinical decision making not arbitrary service delivery models 🙌🏻

This is horrifying.

This is where I live 😊 Love to see the lights every year and spot the new one!

This child is 11 years old but I would appreciate any age range and we will request them for the department. Thanks!

Looking for recommendations of children’s books about DLD? As much variety as possible please! #DLD #DevLangDis #SLCN

One was from a school nurse, and one was from reading about DLD. That’s just contacts I’m aware of in past 48 hours!

We’re seeing this more now too.

#DLDday is coming next week, so now is a good time to check out the Developmental Language Disorder starter pack. #DevLangDis

1960s buildings are the worst for plaster on the hard in our area. The local authority has invested significantly in new schools over past 10-15 years and there are very few older buildings left. We are lucky!

Poor acoustic environment in classrooms and nurseries is my pet peeve! Designed by people who don’t know what it’s like to be in a classroom. We are lucky to have v few open plan schools but some huge nurseries and older buildings with plaster on the hard walls and no soft furnishings or carpets.

The first paper from Shengfu’s PhD! A scoping review on recast dosage for children with #DLD. With increased attention to how much we do of what we do, this is an important contribution @ashajournals.bsky.social

A very enthusiastic shape coder declared “I love maths!” when I got his folder out today 🌟 A big fan of @shapecoding.com

Dissertation submitted! Thank you so much to all the SLTs who shared my survey and participated!

Sharing again before I close the survey. Would be great if any more SLTs able to complete this 10 min survey. Thank you!

Does anyone know of any post reg taught post grad courses in speech sound disorder either in US or Australia please? Asking for a colleague, TIA! #ssd #cssd #childspeechdis

Thanks Kate for sharing! Was such a good way to present the communication environment to my local Education pedagogy team

Thank you all for the shares ❤️

If you have a spare 10mins on the train home from #naplic25, I’d love your input to my survey on vocab intervention #DevLangDis

Such an interesting day at #Naplic25 with reflections for practice with my own caseload as well as next steps for our service #DevLangDis

Really interesting to consider and also important to recognise the vulnerabilities this can present.

Incredible presentations by two very talented and tenacious young people, Tanaya and Abraz, on their lived experience of DLD 👏🏻 highlighting the importance of a diagnosis and understanding of needs #NAPLIC #DevLangDis #SLCN

Ooh, good to know!

Thank you all so much! Will have a lovely time checking out these suggestions. I find books are a great step towards generalisation for grammar work as well as narrative, and include more varied vocab than ready made resources. Wordless good for hyperlexic children who get stuck on the text.

#slpeeps does anyone have any recommendations for wordless picture books that can be used in language therapy please?
